Abstract: The microcontroller system comprises of a programmable microprocessor (13), a plurality of memory units (NVM1-3)having a plurality of addressable memory registers. The memory units are in bus communication with the programmable microprocessor (13) and an application specific integrated circuit (15). The application specific integrated circuit includes a circuit for dividing the memory units into a plurality of addressable regions in response to programming of the programmable microprocessor (13). The microprocessor is programmed such that the initial address for each of the regions is assigned by the most significant addressable bits, and the uppermost address for the region being programmably defined by uppermost address for the region. The circuit includes an address register. The microprocessor can address each of the memory registers and write a respective uppermost address in the respective one of the registers. Each of the addresses corresponding to the uppermost addressable registers of the respective memory device. A comparator circuit is provided for comparing the least significant bits of an address generated by the microprocessor (13) to the least significant bits of the uppermost address, and generating an output signal only if the address generated by the microprocessor is less than the uppermost address.

Abstract: A monolithically integrated laser which is rapidly tunable over a wide optical frequency range comprises a frequency router (12) formed in a semiconductive wafer (10) defining a tuned cavity (20,24). A control circuit applies electrical energy to predetermined controllably transmissive waveguides (40 M ) connecting the frequency routing device (12) with reflective elements (20,24) defined in the wafer (10). This tunes the laser to a desired one of a plurality of optical frequencies (F N ). Application of such electrical energy creates frequency selective pathways through the wafer (10) able to support selected lasing frequencies. Additional optical amplifiers (42 M ) are formed in the frequency router (12) to create lasing action in a preselected pathway. This laser is economical to construct and is useful in high capacity, high speed optical communications networks.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un commutateur optique à sélectivité de la fréquence capable de commuter des signaux optiques séparés dans un canal d'entrée physique vers un canal de sortie sélectionné. Un réseau de diffraction (12) divise de manière spatiale le canal d'entrée (10) en ses composantes de fréquence qui passent à travers des segments différents d'un modulateur à cristaux liquides (24). Les segments (20, 22) du modulateur à cristaux liquides sont commandés séparément pour effectuer la rotation de la polarisation du canal de fréquence passant par celui-ci ou pour le quitter intact. Les canaux passent ensuite à travers un élément à dispersivité de polarisation (28) qui sépare de manière spatiale les faisceaux (14, 16) dans la direction transversale par rapport à leur polarisation. Un second réseau de diffraction (40) recombine les composantes de fréquence de la même polarisation en faisceaux de sortie multiples (42, 44).

Title: Amelioration d'un procede de protection de copie video introduisant des distorsions d'image verticales et horizontales

Filed: 1994-05-09
Abstract: Améliorations apportées à un procédé d'anticopie vidéo provoquant l'enregistrement sur une copie illégale d'un signal vidéo à amplitude anormalement basse. Un mode de réalisation introduit une onde négative dans la partie de surbalayage de l'image de télévision, immédiatement avant les signaux de synchronisation horizontaux ou verticaux mais en vidéo active, ce qui semble être un signal de synchronisation pour le récepteur de télévision ou l'enregistreur de cassettes vidéo et provoque, de ce fait, un retour de balayage horizontal ou vertical prématuré. D'après un autre mode de réalisation (dans la partie droite de surbalayage de l'image), une configuration quadrillée constituée par des zones grises et noires alternées provoque un retour de balayage horizontal prématuré, dans le récepteur de télévision passant une copie illégale, dans des lignes sélectionnées, avec un décalage horizontal de l'information image dans lesdites lignes. Dans encore un autre mode de réalisation, une configuration de gris au niveau de la partie inférieure de surbalayage de l'image provoque une instabilité verticale de l'image. Dans une autre version, des signaux de synchronisation horizontaux sont rétrécis, ce qui provoque des retours de balayage horizontaux irréguliers. L'invention concerne également un dispositif de suppression ou d'atténuation de ces améliorations du signal vidéo, afin d'autoriser la copie.

Abstract: A method of controlling the crystal orientation dependent properties, such as residual stress, barrier layer effectiveness and resistivity, of reactively sputtered films such as titanium nitride, provides a method of optimizing the design parameters of the deposition apparatus and a method of utilizing the apparatus to produce coated wafers. A sputtering target is maintained spaced from a wafer, with a rotating magnetic field produced by a magnet rotating behind the target. An auxiliary magnet is provided at the wafer to unbalance the target magnetic field and allow ion flux from the plasma to reach the substrate. A film is deposited and the properties of the resulting film measured, particularly, in the case of titanium nitride deposition, the ratio of < 200 > to < 111 > crystal orientation, as well as the ratio uniformity. The auxiliary magnet configuration and target to wafer spacing are varied and the ratio remeasured. The variation and measurement are repeated until the ratio and ratio uniformity are achieved. Then the apparatus design is set and wafers manufactured therewith having the desired properties.

Filed: 1994-09-30
Abstract: A process for upgrading plastic material containing inorganic filler or reinforcement material for use as feedstock in a partial oxidation gas generator for the production of raw synthesis gas, fuel gas, or reducing gas. The plastic material is granulated and mixed with water to produce the plastic sludge. The plastic sludge is preheated at a temperature of about 350 °F to 475 °F in the absence of air in a closed system. The preheated plastic sludge is then hydrothermally treated at a temperature of about 450 °F to 650 °F and at a pressure above the vapor pressure of water at that temperature. The hydrothermally treated plastic sludge is cooled, degassed, and mixed with carbonaceous fuel, to produce a slurry. The slurry is then reacted by partial oxidation to produce said synthesis gas, fuel gas, or reducing gas.

Abstract: An endodontic apparatus for the restoration of a dead or severely decayed tooth using induced fluorescence spectroscopy. A root canal probe having an optical fiber through its center transmits excitation light into the tooth's root canal. The excitation light induces the tissue within the root canal to fluoresce. The fluorescent light is collected by the optical fiber and transmitted back to a sensor that generates electrical signals indicative of the intensity of light within predetermined wavelength bands. The electrical signals are processed to identify the tissues within the root canal. The probe may include a slightly conical metal surface having flutes for shaving and removing dentin from within the root canal. Using the fluorescent emission properties of the tissues of components of a tooth, the entrance of the root canal is located. The root canal is cleaned and shaped and the apex of the root canal located using the difference between the fluorescence spectrum of the apex and the root canal. The root canal is sealed and filled by a light cure restorative delivered into the root canal through a tube. The light cure restorative is activated by light transmitted into the root canal by an optical fiber. The light activation and polymerization of the light cure restorative can be controlled by monitoring the intensity of the restorative's fluorescence spectrum.
